Most of my windsurf experience has either been on the med or on a lake so far and I am now aiming to have at least few trips to the coast this year and hopefully more active next year when my house refurb is finished.

From the safety point of view and logisics it doesn' make much sense to be going places on my own and Bristol Nomads seam to have a few people in Swindon / North Wiltshire area. Therefore it would be good if I could join up with some of the Nomad trips.

Alan, that exactly why I joined the Nomads when I first got some kit in the UK about 6-7 years ago. The regular trips give a good intro to venue, and there are some very knowledgeable folk in the club. Although leaving in Wiltshire make the pub trips difficult.

Although it has to be said this year the lack of wind forcast have meant many events have not happend. IBut once you get to know a few people then the ad hock trips through hte forum are very successful as well.
